Hi, Environment: Apache 2.2.13 Windows XP SP3 Background: My intention is to use SSI to include one html file in another. The text in both can be either English or Russian - or a combination. So I used UTF-8 encoding for the files as it seemed to be the right thing to do. Problem: The two files HTML files that can be used to demonstrate this problem are as follows: outer.shtml: <html> <body> <table border="1"><tr><td nowrap><!--#include virtual="/en_US/Pages/utf8.utf8" --></td></tr></table> </body> </html> utf8.utf8: <table><tr><td>xxxxxs</td></tr></table> As can be seen outer.shtml includes the file utf8.utf8. When these files are saved as "ANSI" (using Notepad) and call the included file "something.htm", they display correctly in a browser as you would expect. However, when I save them as UTF-8 (again using Notepad) I seem to get a strange character sent to the browser, just before the start of the included file. I have attached the file received by the browser. (see outer[1].txt in the attached zip file). As you may be able to see there is an "odd" character between "<td nowrap>" and "<table>. This has the effect of pushing the inner table down a line which is not wanted. I have modified the httpd.conf only to allow me to have 4 virtual hosts, enable SSI and, when I noticed the problem, I also uncommented the line: Include conf/extra/httpd-languages.conf As part of by attempt to fix the problem, I have also added .shtml to a line in the above file as follows: AddCharset UTF-8 .utf8 .shtml However, nothing seems to stop this odd character being presented to the browser. If you could provide some help or guidance to solve this problem - or perhaps suggest whether this is a bug and should be logged, I would be grateful. Many Thanks for your attention thus far. Regards, Christopher Biggs
